Charlotte Osei’s cryptic message sparks controversy amidst Chief Justice’s request for petitions seeking her removal

Her post coincided with Chief Justice Torkornoo’s formal request for copies of three petitions submitted to President John Dramani Mahama, seeking her removal.

Charlotte Osei posted a GIF of a woman sipping something, accompanied by the caption, “Sip sip …”

The post quickly gained attention on social media, with users drawing parallels between her previous dismissal and the current proceedings against the Chief Justice.

Many users suggested that Charlotte Osei was removed from office without access to the petitions filed against her, leading them to believe the current situation was a form of karma.

“Aunty Char, please, were you given copies of the petition? This Akan adage best describes what is going on: ‘) koto de3 ne bu dw3 na nyanyankyere de3 ne ho s)) n,’” one user commented.

Another user added, “What goes around comes around.”

One of the users lamented, “The stick we used to beat Takyi will be used to beat Baah.”

“Karma! My Queen, live the moment.”

“The stick we used to beat Takyi is the same stick we will use to beat Baah.”

“The God of heaven is putting your enemies to shame.”

“We’re using a bigger stick-on Baah!”

Meanwhile, in a letter to the President on Thursday, March 27, 2025, Chief Justice Torkornoo formally requested access to the petitions to enable her to respond accordingly.

“I am by this letter humbly and respectfully asking His Excellency the President and eminent members of the Council of State to forward the petitions against me to me and allow me at least seven days after receipt of the same to provide my response. This response can then form part of the material for consultations anticipated under Article 146 (6), before the possible setting up of a Committee of Inquiry under Article 146 (7),” she stated.

Her request follows President Mahama’s decision to consult the Council of State after receiving three separate petitions calling for her removal.

The Minister for Government Communications, Felix Kwakye Ofosu, confirmed that the petitions have been forwarded to the Council of State in line with Article 146 of the 1992 Constitution.

The Council of State is expected to review the petitions and advise the President on the next course of action.
